Sparta Prague (H) - Wed 23rd Oct, 20:00 | CL | Pre-Match Thread

[MCFC1993]

Kick off time 20:00 (BST). Live on TNT Sport for those in the UK.

8th v 10th so in terms of the table a much closer match-up than initally thought.



They have beat Salzburg comfortably and drew to Stuttgart.

I'm still expecting a comfortable win at home, expect a few changes from the Wolves match.

Would like to see McAtee on the right and Doku on the left for this one. Pairing Savinho/Doku is not that effective, and we’re wasting Bernardo out there when we need more bodies to rotate in midfield. McAtee can play the same role that Grealish does on the left.

Proper football is less than a month from starting up again with the CS at Wembley so I thought I'd get this up & ready to roll. Hope all the regulars will still be here and some new blood join us too this season. Get all your selections in the compy rather than just posting them in the...

Grealish being kept back for CL this season, he is our player who retains possession the best.

Looking forward to this. Should be a few changes with game time for some on the edges of the first team.

My 'local' team as Sparta's ground is just up your road from my flat. I've watched Sparta a few times this season and they can be good, but not anything for us to be worried about.

Tempted to go to one of the Sparta bars to watch it on Wednesday, but probably better to start at home :)

We need to start playing Akanji at RB as we did in the Treble run in. That would then guarantee Stones game time and also get him being the one stepping into false midfield
